This study was conducted to investigate the effect of Chinese artichoke powder on the physicochemical properties and the sensory characteristics of yanggaeng. According to the increasing contents of Chinese artichoke powder, the $^{\circ}Brix$ value and pH levels of yanggaeng were significantly decreased whereas the moisture contents of yanggaeng was significantly increased. The result of color measurement shown that L value of groups containing Chinese artichoke powder was lower than that of control group, but a value and b value of groups containing Chinese artichoke powder were higher. Texture measurement score in terms of cohesiveness, chewiness, and brittleness for yanggaeng were significantly decreased according to the levels of added Chinese artichoke powder content. The contents of total polyphenol, DPPH radical scavenging activity, and NSA of groups containing Chinese artichoke powder were higher than those of control group. As Chinese artichoke powder increased, antioxidative activity also became bigger. Sensory evaluation scores in terms of appearance, odor, taste, texture, and overall preference of groups with 2% and 4% of Chinese artichoke powder did not show any significantly differences when compared to the control group. Based on these findings, current study suggest that addition of 4% Chinese artichoke powder was the best substitution ratio for yanggaeng.

Aloe is an attractive potential food source because it has functional uses. It has been widely used as a well-being food and drink. The antioxidant activity was estimated by measuring DPPH free radical scavenging activity. We investigated the quality characteristics of cookies prepared by adding various concentrations of aloe powder (0%, 1%, 3%, 5%, all w/w) as a substitute for flour. In this study, the DPPH free radical scavenging activity, moisture content, and hardness of cookies significantly increased with increasing aloe powder, while the pH, spread factor and L and b values slightly decreased. Sensory evaluation scores in terms of texture were shown to be very similar statistically, but color, flavor, taste, and overall acceptability scores were lower than the control. As a result of this study, the quality of cookies with the addition of 1% aloe powder were the most suitable in terms of taste, flavor, texture, and sensory properties.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of processing conditions (temperature and time) and binding agent types (glutinous rice flour, potato starch, bean flour, and acorn flour) on the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of ground dried-pork meat product. For this purpose, ground dried-pork meat product was produced by adding several binding agents at different drying temperatures and times. The drying time affected moisture content and water activity in all drying temperature. However, under the similar drying conditions, the extent of drying varied depending on the type of binding agents. The results of sensory evaluation for texture degree and overall acceptability indicated the following: overall, higher drying temperatures and longer drying time heightened the degree of texture, and the overall acceptability varied depending on binding agent type. Physicochemical and sensory characteristics were analyzed to determine any possible correlation. The results revealed a high correlation between moisture content, water activity, shear forces, and sensory evaluation (p<0.01). However, there was no correlation with respect to overall acceptability.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of persimmon powder on the antioxidant activity and quality characteristics of mung bean starch gel. Mung bean starch gels were prepared with different amounts (0%, 1%, 3%, 5%, 7% and 9%) of persimmon powder. The antioxidant activity was estimated by the DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) free radical scavenging activity and by the total phenolic acid content in the persimmon powder and mung bean starch gel. For analyzing the quality characteristics, syneresis, pH, color, texture profile analysis, and sensory evaluations were measured. The syneresis in the control group was higher than that in the treated group, but the mung bean starch gel prepared with 9% persimmon powder was higher than that of the control group (p<0.001). The pH, b values, total phenolic acid content, and DPPH free radical scavenging activity of mung bean starch gels significantly increased with increasing persimmon powder (p<0.001), while the L values and a values of the mung bean starch gels significantly decreased with increasing persimmon powder (p<0.001). In the texture profile analysis, the mung bean starch gel with 9% persimmon powder showed significantly lower levels of chewiness, gumminess, and cohesiveness (p<0.05). The hardness and springiness of the mung bean starch gel did not show any significant difference. The consumer acceptability score for the mung bean starch gel prepared with 7% persimmon powder ranked significantly higher than that for the other groups in overall preference, appearance, flavor, and color (p<0.05). From these results;we suggest that persimmon powder is a good ingredient for increasing consumer acceptability and the functionality of mung bean starch gel.

To compare functional Chinese cabbage('Amtak' baechu; F1 hybrid cultivar between Brassica rapa and B. perkinensis, AB) with general Chinese cabbage ('Chunkwang' baechu; general spring cultivar, CB), two kinds of kimchi(ABK and CBK) prepared with AB and CB cultivar were fermented at $10^{\circ}C$ for 10 days. Their fermentative characteristics and anti-proliferative activities against mouse carcinoma cell lines were investigated. General kimchi(CBK) showed mature pH on the $6^{th}$ day of fermentation, whereas functional kimchi(ABK) reached pH on the $9^{th}$ day. CBK also exhibited acidity of mature stage on the $6^{th}$ day, but ABK reached mature acidity on the $9^{th}$ day. Although ABK and CBK were salted in the same condition, ABK had lower salinity than CBK, throughout the fermentation time. The highest total bacterial and lactic bacterial counts of CBK showed on the $8^{th}$ day of fermentation, but ABK showed the highest total bacterial and lactic bacterial counts on the $10^{th}$ day. The texture of ABK was harder than CBK for fermentation time. This seems to be corrleated with the slower fermentation rate of ABK. ABK showed significantly higher anti-proliferative activity (54.6% cell viability of control) in B16BL6 at $1,000{\mu}g/mL$. ABK was also higher in anti-proliferative activity than CBK throughout the fermentation time. However, there was no significant difference in the anti-proliferative activity of ABK between the fermentation times. In conclusion, fermentation of ABK showed a better texture, due to the slow fermentation rate and more anti-proliferative activity against mouse carcinoma cell line than those of CBK.
